England and Wales
This section applies in relation to bail granted under this Part subject to the duty mentioned in section 47(3)(b)(“live link bail”).
An accused person who attends a police station to answer to live link bail is not to be treated as in police detention for the purposes of this Act.
Subsection (2) does not apply in relation to an accused person if—
at any time before the beginning of proceedings in relation to a live link direction under section 57C of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 in relation to him, he informs a constable that he does not intend to give his consent to the direction;
proceedings in relation to a live link direction under that section have begun but he does not give his consent to the direction; or
If F9paragraph (b) or (d) of subsection (3) applies in relation to a person, he is to be treated for the purposes of this Part—
as if he had been arrested for and charged with the offence in connection with which he was granted bail, and
as if he had been so charged at the time when that paragraph first applied in relation to him.
An accused person who is arrested under section 46A for failing to attend at a police station to answer to live link bail, and who is brought to a police station in accordance with that section, is to be treated for the purposes of this Part—
as if he had been arrested for and charged with the offence in connection with which he was granted bail, and
as if he had been so charged at the time when he is brought to the station.
